A few days ago, I was a news junky. Now all I see is the race by politicians and others to describe the danger of coronavirus. The news makes me sick. Not because of fear of the virus, but because of a fear of something far greater - and totally avoidable.
I don't deny the danger of the virus. It is real and it is very present. But our reaction is worse. In recent days I've spoken about the loss of hidden lives and I've done a deep dive into the risks posed by both corona and an economic shutdown. Many on this platform have reacted to my words.
Well, today, I'm doing something new. Today, I'm delivering the speech I wish our leaders would deliver. Not a speech in which we promise ever greater levels of sacrifice in the face of fear, but a speech in we offer battle in the face of adversity.
